Faces Songtext

von Nik Kershaw

They found me lost in space, nowhere to go
With the stakes so high and my resistance so low
They said "follwo us, follow us today
We are truth, we are the way."

"Young man" they said "Your search is through
You can trust in us, we'll look after you
We will be your body, we will be your mind
And we've a face of each and every kind
Yes we've a face of each and every kind"

"One for us and one for you
One for old and one for new
One for rich and one for poor
One for peace and one for war"

"there's no need for you to hear or see
We'll do your thinking for you, if you'll agree
So close your eyes and let yourself unwind
And we can leave the real world behind"

For a moment I was taken in
They were in my body, there were under my skin
Until I heard a voice crying "set me free"
And I realized that it was me
Yes I realized that it was me

Just when you really thing you're going places
They come inside of you with their many faces

One for us and one for you
One for old and one for new
One for rich and one for poor
One for peace and one for war
